One of the marks of a healthy church is a steady stream of new attendees. They might have come for any kind of reason\u2014an outreach initiative, a special service or time of the year, or maybe just an invitation from a church member. Whatever the cause, they are there. And once they are, there is one, key question you should ask: What happens next? Most churches have some kind of answer to that question, but generally, the answer involves actions taken by the church toward the guests. What happens next? There might be a gift bag. Or a phone call from a member of the church staff. Or even a personal visit or invitation to coffee. These are all good things, but think about the question from the opposite direction."}
